Hey, ho, let’s go. Rhino celebrates the Ramones’ indelible musical
legacy with reissues of the pioneering group’s first four albums on 180-gram
vinyl. Ramones, Leave Home, Rocket To Russia and Road To Ruin look amazing and
come in accurate reproductions of the original packaging. More importantly, the
records sound magnificent and were made using lacquers cut from the original
analog masters by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering.

For these releases, Rhino will – for the first time ever on vinyl –
reissue the first pressing of Leave Home, which includes “Carbona Not Glue,”
a track that was replaced with “Sheena Is A Punk Rocker” on all subsequent
pressings.

Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee and Tommy Ramone. The original line-up – along with
Marky Ramone who joined in 1978 – helped blaze a trail more than 30 years
ago with this classic four-album run. It’s hard to overstate how influential
the group’s signature sound – minimalist rock played at maximum
volume – was at the time, and still is today.

These four landmark albums all on 180-gram vinyl – Ramones (1976), Leave
Home (1977), Rocket To Russia (1977) and Road to Ruin (1978) – contain such
unforgettable songs as: “Blitzkrieg Bop,” “Sheena Is Punk Rocker,”
“Beat On The Brat,” “Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue,” “Pinhead,”
“Rockaway Beach” and “I Wanna Be Sedated.”
